Decisions, decisions!!! 2012 Potential Schedule!

I have been giving a lot of thought to 2012 and there are lots more posts to come on this subject. I don't want to short change a few of the topics, so for now, here are some thoughts on my 2012 schedule.

First off, every year I like to try to keep it fresh and do something new every year. I love to race the local venues, but I feel the need to always try something new.

2006 - First year of tris- Completed sprints and olys

2007-Focused on Duathlons and First Half Iron

2008- More tris, a half, more marathons and even a couple 50K trail runs

2009- Focused on Xterra Tris, Mtn Biking and of course some tris and runs!

So I scratch my head now trying to figure out what I would like to do for 2012. For a number of reasons, I have decided to try to limit the race travel. My thought for the year is to continue to challenge myself and hopefully put down some stronger times at my key races (TTT, REV3CP) but also to sprinkle in something new and fresh to mix it up and this year I am thinking some more bike races.

So here is what I am currently debating between. And of course I already see some races I like that are not on there (Maumee Bay, Hinkley Du, ??). So stay tuned to see what I end up deciding.....
